Should have lobbed a bottle of K Seal in it first.
Absolutely amazing stuff it is, unlike all the usual suspects like Radweld. ::)

Had a small leak in my road car rad 3 years ago, and on recommendation bought some and chucked it in, fully expecting it NOT to werk. whistle:

As I say, that was 3 years ago, and it's still not leaking. eeek:

Gets rave reviews everywhere. :thumbsup:

It is out of the car at the moment tho and a quick swap...

Once the engine is installed it is a nightmare to remove it.... So makes sense to fit a new one....

171 snotters delivered tho!  Shocked:

GULP of epic proprtions!

HOW MUCH?!! eeek:

Haven't you got a rad repair specialist out there that could have fixed it like what I has down the road 'ere?

Now that IS bloody extortion that is. evil:

Like the wings for my 'Uncle Festa'
They were about 30 snotters when the mk 1 was in production.
2nd hand ones are now fetching upwards of 150 now! cussing:

Fortunately I don't need one, but am going to have to spend long cold dark winter nights in its nest waxoiling every square millimeter of them, and they don't come off either (welded on)

Well, I wanted the two-core as it is so hot out here.... 93 snotters.

You can get a three-core for £48 but if it all boils over you haven't saved much....  noooo:

Then there is the delivery charge to Cyprus - £49.37...  sad24:

Then of course you have bastard fecking bastard VAT @20% - £28.63  cussing:

Don't lob the owld one. noooo:

If you can't get K Seal out there, I'll gladly post yous a bottle out there like for possible future usage.
Always handy to have a bottle just in case like. :thumbsup:

Read all the user comments on Amazon and on their web site too.
It IS actually magic. eeek:

Even seals the dodgy and re-occuring dreaded K series 1.8 leaky head gasket problems too apparently.
